“The most joyful thing I know is the peace, the silence that one enjoys in the woods or on the tilled lands.”
Jean Francois Millet

“If you could see how beautiful the forest is! I sometimes slip away there at days end after my work day and I always return overwhelmed. It has such a calm, such a terrible grandeur, to the point that I am surprised that I feel genuinely afraid. I don't know what the trees says amongst themselves, but they say something we don't speak the same language.”
Jean-François Millet

“I want to put strongly and completely all that is necessary, for things weakly said might as well not be said at all.”
Jean-François Millet
